Malaria infection and morbidity in infants in relation to genetic polymorphisms in Tanzania.

Tropical medicine & international health : TM & IH - 1 Mar 1999

Stirnadel H A, Stöckle M, Felger I, Smith T, Tanner M, Beck H P

Abstract excerpt

To investigate the effects of host polymorphisms on malaria morbidity and infection, the frequency distributions of TNF alpha promotor gene and sickle cell trait were studied in infants in an area highly endemic for Plasmodium falciparum transmission in Tanzania. Differences in parasite prevalence, density, febrile episodes with and without parasitaemia, PCV levels and the frequencies of different MSP-2 parasite...
